Balance Retaining Clips

A:  Goods in transit are liable to move about. It’s natural and impossible to prevent, be it movement in the factory, delivery vehicle or just the fitters installing the window.

Not surprisingly then, sometimes the balance springs would slip off the "shoe" slide designed to connect the balance and sash together. When the balance slips off, it means a service call and the window being inoperable because only one side is being lifted.

With every window of ours, the balances are held firmly in place with a retaining clip that once snapped into position locks the balance in place for life.

You will never need a service engineer to make any adjustments because the balances have become detached.
